The Lost Simba Syndrome: Stop Adding Garbage and Start Burning the Veil

The Lost Simba Syndrome: Stop Adding Garbage and Start Burning the Veil We are drowning in synthetic noise, and most of you are calling it "progress." Every single day, the matrix hands you a new piece of digital malware: a new hustle to exhaust you, a new historical trauma to internalize, a new standard of comparison designed to keep you trapped in a loop of anxiety and shame. You’ve been trained to believe that growth means adding more—more commitments, more titles, more weight. That is a lie designed to smother your fire. In the rich tradition of Madagascar, the ancestors left us a profound truth: "Justice is like fire; even if one covers it with a veil, it still burns." Your true self, your ancestral blueprint, is that fire. But right now, it’s suffocating under a heavy veil of systemic conditioning and self-inflicted clutter. You are operating like Lost Little Simba from the Warrior Handbook for Life’s Journey —a king living among the herd, convinced he’s just...

The Gina Gee Project "Cream Of Wheat"

The Gina Gee project is a show that my daughter created. She saw me making video, and been watching YouTube​ and decided to do her own thing. For the last year she and her sister Ms. Shasha have been recording video using up all of my storage space, and figured that it was time to support her. Her first video is about making Cream of wheat. She in a dramatic fashion microwave her breakfast and teaches the viewer. I believe that when our children show interest and dedication to something we should support them. This might be a phase, but I am trying to use it as what our ancestors call a "lure to Mastery". I believe that our children need to be taught skills and in this video project she will learn, acting, interviewing, editing, and story structure and story telling. All these are transferable skills that can be used in pursuit of her life's purpose. Of course she will get a write-up from me on our site,  at least until she ( hopefully) starts writing her own accompa...

Django - Controversy

Here is a response to an article that I read about Spike Lee and the Movie "Django Unchained" The article can be found: Morris W. O'Kelly This was my first time writting a response on Huffington Post and I was not aware of a word limit, so I figured hey this is a post on my blog. Check it out but first check out the excellent article by Mr. O'Kelly I was not  aware of all the controversy that surrounded Django, and Spike Lee. I am glad I did not hear about it until after I seen the movie. I do agree with  with Mr. O'Kelly about Spike's commitment to our community, that I feel can not be questioned. All anyone has to do is look at Mr. Lee's track record and see the love affair he has with Black people and our history. By understanding his love affair it makes it easier for others to understand his anger when it comes to Tarantino and his film making. I have seen many of Tarantino's films, and often wondered why he felt it so necessary to riddl...
